Full Biography

“Thanks for both of you for being part of our very special day. Your beautiful performance contributed to the intimate, relaxed and sophisticated atmosphere we wanted to create. The change between the classical music for the ceremony and then the electric performance delighted our guests and was enjoyed by all. The Jai Ho was a favourite!”
- Orit and Kingsley Taylor - Wedding
"I just wanted to say thank you ever so much for the ladies. They did an absolutely fantastic job and everyone was thoroughly impressed. They really made our ceremony beautiful and they looked beautiful so thank you again. x"
- Miken Patel and Shehnai Kapadia - Wedding
"Everybody enjoyed your performance. Our client was very happy.....They asked me if there is any video as they would like to keep it for a good memory of the occasion."
- Nino Mosca - Private Party, Italy
If you are looking for musical entertainment with a difference for your wedding, corporate event or party....
This beautiful combination of electric cello and violin creates a compelling sound that will leave the audience spell-bound.
Supported by fully orchestrated backing tracks, the duo perform a high energy dynamic fusion of Western classical/crossover/pop and Bollywood music to provide a truly breathtaking event - everything from Take That and Coldplay to Kirwani and Jai Ho, and with Paganini and Bach as you’ve never heard them before!
The performance is choreographed by a dance professional, who as an option performs a Bollywood show to create an attention grabbing musical spectacular, with the upbeat rhythms of Dhoom Machale and the hypnotic melodies of Humko Humise Churalo and Kabhi Kabhi.
As an alternative they can perform a modern Western music set that is ideal for a quieter event - a combination of well-known classics and modern pop tunes to make your party or wedding reception truly memorable.
Your Event
The girls can tailor the show to your needs and will discuss the detailed format with you beforehand. A popular format is to start with up to one hour of light classical and popular music as background to a drinks reception or during dinner. This is followed by a dramatic change in both costume and tempo which immediately grabs the audience's attention and the main high energy performance begins. This can be either the duo or duo plus dancer. The length of the main show is agreed with the client in advance but is typically 20-30 minutes.
Or perhaps you would like a romantic violin-cello duo for your wedding ceremony, played on traditional acoustic instruments, followed by a more upbeat electric performance for your reception. Your guests will be surprised to see the same musicians playing a very different style of music, having changed costumes and performing with very different instruments!
Previous Experience
Both musicians are very experienced professionals who have worked together for more than 3 years. They both have many years of full-time classical music education to degree level, having attended the country's top music schools and conservatoires: The Yehudi Menuhin International School, Chetham's Music School, the RNCM and the Royal Academy of Music. They have thriving international solo careers, performing throughout the world and having appeared on TV numerous times and supported artists such as Take That, Westlife, Sting, Rod Stewart, Russell Watson, Pixie Lott, Cheryl Cole, Leona Lewis and many more.
Please note: Due to availability or illness, deputy musicians of a very high professional standard may sometimes be used.

Jon E booked Fusion Strings for their event
“Am just dashing off to Dublin but need to compile this note for you to bring to the attention of whoever. Lizzie May/Fusion Strings were absoluetly brilliant. Lizzie and Marsha are a class act. From arrival to departure their enthusiasm, spirit and demanour was so pleasant and our 80 guests just have not stopped talking about their magnificent performance. With an age range of 9yrs old to 90, all were totally enthralled throughout the two set act. They were not only musically superb but were stunning and eye catching, with both music and choreography. Lighting and a back drop would take their perfection to the next level! They need to raise their fees, and they would still be worth every penny! A master piece of excellence, thank you and please pass on our sincere gratitude, especially from my wife Sarah (for whom Fusion were a complete surprise) and our friends and family from all over UK (and even a father from Australia). Thank you again Best Regards ...”
